Staying at Sam's place was absolutely one of the best things happened to me during an unprecedented pandemic. I stayed at Sam's place for a month during the COVID-19 pandemic. The room was beautiful and sparkling clean and Sam and her family had been nothing but sincere, kind, and compassionate to me. They went above and beyond their way to make my stay as comfortable as it could.
Their house is located in a very vivid and quiet local neighborhood where you can find amazing street food right around the block. There are two local fresh markets about 15 mins walk away from their house and you also have the option to take bike rides and get there in 3 mins. I stayed there for a fairly long period and have never felt any inconvenience in terms of getting groceries/ food (even during a pandemic!). I can always use GRAB to get taxis and food delivered. However, as has been mentioned in the description, this place is not suitable for people wanting to live within walking distance to tourist attractions or fancy shopping malls. It's more for people are interested in experiencing the culture and live like a local.
Overall I love Sam's place and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone want to live comfortably in a local neighborhood without high expenses.
